Our Headquarters

The Mojave Desert Land Trust (MDLT) Center for Conservation Initiatives, located two miles west of downtown Joshua Tree, is situated in a wildlife linkage corridor with a view of our Gateway Parcel Section 33 where we are uniquely positioned to carry forth our mission from a place that accurately reflects and effectively represents our organization’s vision and its commitment to the Mojave Desert ecosystem.

We envision our Headquarters as a center for voices interested in all aspects of desert conservation. A place for thoughtful intelligent dialogue, conservation leadership, environmental education and community engagement.

Our Gateway Headquarters is a unique and versatile venue to host your next event, with space available for meetings, workshops, pop-ups, screenings and other special occasions.
